In Reply to: Sun on damp bales? posted by Hay hay hay on July 23, 2016 at 08:15:33:
In addition to the wetish bales, I'd be concerned about stacking them on a trailer - not that it's a bad idea as it gets the bales out where air can circulate and the sun can force some evaporation. My concern with the wagon is the wood on the wagon deck wicking moisture and also sealing the bottom of the bale. I had a few bales that set on a wagon one time and where they sweat (cut side up) they molded. I would suggest setting the bales cut side up on the wagon, only setting on a pallet. Better air circulation and less wood to hay surface area.
But as was also mentioned, if possible, cut the strings, windrow and rebale after further drying.
